Carleton vs Pitzer

Carleton College students, like Dartmouth College students, typically take 3 courses per trimester. Much less pressure than those schools which expect students to take 4 or 5 courses per trimester.

However, that means that each course is “larger”, equivalent to 5 quarter hours, rather than 4 quarter hours for each of four courses or 3 quarter hours for each of five courses.
